2. 2G and 3G LED’s constant blinking every 1 sec: no SIM or bad PIN;
3. 2G/3G LED’s blinking every 1 sec: connected 2G/3G, but no data session established;
4. Blinking from 2G LED to 3G LED repeatedly: SIM holder not inserted;
5. 2G/3G LED turned on: connected 2G/3G with data session;
6. 2G/3G LED blinking rapidly: connected 2G/3G with data session and data is being transferred.
3.1.4 Hardware installation
1. Insert SIM card which was given by your ISP (Internet Service Provider). Correct SIM card orientation is shown in
the picture.
2. Attach LTE and Wi-Fi antennas.
3. Connect the power adapter to the socket on the front panel of the device. Then plug the other end of the power
adapter into a wall outlet or power strip.
4. Connect to the device wirelessly (SSID: Teltonika_Router) or use Ethernet cable and plug it into any LAN Ethernet
port.
3.2 Logging in
After you’re complete with the setting up as described in the section above, you are ready to start logging into
your router and start configuring it. This example shows how to connect on Windows 7. On windows Vista: click Start ->
Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center -> Manage network Connections -> (Go to step 4). On Windows XP: Click
Start -> Settings -> Network Connections -> (see step 4). You won’t see “Internet protocol version 4(TCP/IPv4)”, instead
you’ll have to select “TCP/IP Settings” and click options -> (Go to step 6)
We first must set up our network card so that it could properly communicate with the router.
1. Press the start button
2. Type in network connections”, wait for the results to
pop up.
3. Click “View network connections”
4. Then right click on your wireless device that you use to
connect to other access points (It is the one with the name
“Wireless Network Connection” and has signal bars on its
icon).
5. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and then click
Properties
6. By default the router is going to have DHCP enabled,
which means that if you select “Obtain an IP address
automatically” and “Obtain DNS server address
automatically”, the router should lease you an IP and you
should be ready to login.
7. If you choose to configure manually here’s what you have to do:
First select an IP address. Due to the stock settings that your router has arrived in you can only enter an IP in the
form of 192.168.1.XXX , where XXX is a number in the range of 2-254 (192.168.1.2 , 192.168.1.254 , 192.168.1.155 and
so on… are valid; 192.168.1.0 , 192.168.1.1 , 192.168.1.255 , 192.168.1.699 and so on… are not). Next we enter the
subnet mask: this has to be “255.255.255.0”. Then we enter the default gateway: this has to be “192.168.1.1”. Finally
we enter primary and secondary DNS server IP’s. One will suffice, though it is good to have a secondary one as well as it
will act as a backup if the first should fail. The DNS can be your routers IP (192.168.1.1), but it can also be some external
DNS server (like the one Google provides: 8.8.8.8).
Right click on the Wireless network icon and select Connect / Disconnect. A list should pop up with all available
wireless networks. Select “Teltonika” and click connect. Then we launch our favorite browser and enter the router’s IP
into the address field:
Press enter. If there are no problems you should be greeted with a login screen such as this:
Enter the default password, which is “admin01” into the “Passwordfield and then either click Login with your
mouse or press the Enter key. You have now successfully logged into the RUT240!
From here on out you can configure almost any aspect of your router.
16
4 Operation Modes
The RUT2xx series router supports various operation modes. It can be connected to the internet (WAN) via
mobile, standard Ethernet cable or via a wireless network. When connecting to the internet, you may also backup your
main WAN connection with one or two backup connections. Any interface can act like backup if configured so. At first
router uses its main WAN connection, if it is lost then router tries to connect via backup with higher priority and if that
fails too, router tries the second backup option.

In later sections it will be explained, in detail, how to configure your router to work in a desired mode.
5 Powering Options
The RUT2xx router can be powered from power socket
5.1 Powering the device from higher voltage
If you decide not to use our standard 9 VDC wall adapters and want to power the device from higher voltage (15
30 VDC), please make sure that you choose a power supply of high quality. Some power supplies can produce voltage
peaks significantly higher than the declared output voltage, especially during connection.
While the device is designed to accept input voltage of up to 30 VDC, peaks from high voltage power supplies can
harm the device. If you want to use high voltage power supplies it is recommended to also use additional safety
equipment to suppress voltage peaks from the power supply.

8.8.8.8
8.8.6.6
Usually the gateway has some predefined DNS servers. As such the
router, when it needs to resolve a hostname (“www.google.com”,
“www.cnn.com”, etc…) to an IP address, it will forward all the DNS
requests to the gateway. By entering custom DNS servers the router
will take care of host name resolution. You can enter multiple DNS
servers to provide redundancy in case the one of the server fails.
7.2.2.1.2 DHCP:
When you select the DHCP protocol you can use it as is, because most networks will not require any additional

a static IP address it might also bind it to your computer’s MAC
address (i.e. that IP will only work with your computer). In this
field you can enter your computer’s MAC address and “fool” the
gateway in thinking that it is communicating with your computer.
3.

(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
8.
Override MAC address
86:48:71:B7:E9:E4
Override MAC address of the WAN interface. If your ISP gives you
a static IP address it might also bind it to your computer’s MAC
address (i.e. that IP will only work with your computer). In this
field you can enter your computer’s MAC address and “fool” the
gateway in thinking that it is communicating with your computer.
9.
Override MTU
1500
Maximum transmission unit specifies the largest possible size of
a data packet.

7.2.2.2.3 PPPoE
Field name
Sample value
Explanation
1.
Disable NAT
Enable/Disable
If checked, the router will not perform NAT (masquerade) on this
interface
2
Use default gateway
Enable/Disable
If unchecked, no default route is configured
3.
Use gateway metric
0
The WAN configuration by default generates a routing table
entry. With this field you can alter the metric of that entry
4.
Use DNS servers

Send LCP echo requests at the given interval in seconds, only
effective in conjunction with failure threshold
7.
Inactivity timeout
0
Close inactive connection after the given amount of seconds, use
0 to persist connection
51
7.2.2.2.4 IP Aliases
IP aliases are a way of defining or reaching a subnet that works in the same space as the regular network.
As you can see, the configuration is very similar to the static protocol; only in the example a 99th subnet is
defined. Now if some device has an IP in the 99 subnet (192.168.99.xxx) and the subnet’s gateway metric is “higher” and
the device is trying to reach the internet it will reroute it’s traffic not to the gateway that is defined in common
configurations but through the one that is specified in IP aliases.
You may also optionally define a broadcast address and a custom DNS server.
7.2.2.2.5 Backup WAN configuration
Backup WAN is a function that allows you to back up your primary connection in case it goes down. There can be
two backup connections selected at the same time, in that case, when the primary connection fails, the router tries to
use the backup with higher priority and if that is unavailable or fails too, then router tries the backup with the lower
priority.
52
The majority of the options consist of timing and other important parameters that help determine the health of
your primary connection. Regular health checks are constantly performed in the form of ICMP packets (Pings) on your
primary connection. When the connection’s state starts to change (READY->NOT READY and vice versa) a necessary
amount of failed or passed health checks has to be reached before the state changes completely. This delay is instituted
so as to mitigate “spikes” in connection availability, but it also extends the time before the backup link can be brought
up or down.
Field Name
Sample value
Explanation
1.
Health monitor Interval
Disable/5/10/20/30/60/120
Seconds
The interval at which health checks are performed
2.
Health monitor ICMP host(s)
Disable/DNS Server(s)
/WAN GW/Custom
Indicate where to Ping for a health check. As there
is no definitive way to determine when the
connection to internet is down for good, you’ll
have to define a host whose availability is that of
the internet as a whole.
3.

7.3.2 DHCP Server
The DHCP server is the router’s side service that can automatically configure the TCP/IP settings of any device that
requests such a service. If you connect a device that has been configured to obtain IP address automatically the DHCP
server will lease an IP address and the device will be able to fully communicate with the router.
7.3.2.1 General Setup
Field Name
Sample value
Explanation
1.
DHCP
Enable / Disable/
DHCP Relay
Manage DHCP server
2.
Start
100
The starting address of the range that the DHCP server can use to give out to
devices. E.g.: if your LAN IP is 192.168.2.1 and your subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
that means that in your network a valid IP address has to be in the range of
[192.168.2.1 192.168.2.254](192.168.2.0 and 192.168.2.255 are special
unavailable addresses). If the Start value is set to 100 then the DHCP server will
only be able to lease out addresses starting from 192.168.2.100
3.
Limit
150
How many addresses the DHCP server gets to lease out. Continuing on the above
example: if the start address is 192.168.2.100 then the end address will be
192.168.2.254 (100 + 155 1 = 254).
4.
Lease time
12
How long a leased IP will be considered valid. An IP address after the specified
amount of time will expire and the device that leased it out will have to request a
new one. Select Hours or Minutes (minimum 2min).

Input
Reject/Drop/Accept
DEFAULT* action that is to be performed for packets that pass through the
Input chain.
3.
Output
Reject/Drop/Accept
DEFAULT* action that is to be performed for packets that pass through the
Output chain.
4.
Forward
Reject/Drop/Accept
DEFAULT* action that is to be performed for packets that pass through the
Forward chain.
*DEFAULT: When a packet goes through a firewall chain it is matched against all the rules for that specific chain. If
no rule matches said packet, an according Action (either Drop or Reject or Accept) is performed.
Accept Packet gets to continue down the next chain.
Drop Packet is stopped and deleted.
Reject Packet is stopped, deleted and, differently from Drop, an ICMP packet containing a message of rejection
is sent to the source of the dropped packet.
63
7.6.2 DMZ

7.6.6.4 HTTP Attack Prevention
HTTP attacks send a complete, legitimate HTTP header, which includes a 'Content-Length' field to specify the size
of the message body to follow. However, the attacker then proceeds to send the actual message body at an extremely
slow rate (i.e. 1 byte/110 seconds). Due to the entire message being correct and complete, the target server will
attempt to obey the 'Content-Length' field in the header, and wait for the entire body of the message to be transmitted,
hence slowing it down.

8.4 VPN
8.4.1 OpenVPN
VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a method for secure data transfer through unsafe public network. This section
explains how to configure OpenVPN, which is implementation of VPN supported by the RUT900 router.
A picture below demonstrates default OpenVPN configurations list, which is empty, so you have to define a new
configuration to establish any sort of OpenVPN connection. To create it, enter desired configuration name in “New
configuration name” field, select device role from “Role” drop down list. For example, to create an OpenVPN client with
configuration name demo, select client role, name it “demo” and press “Add New” button as shown in the following
picture.
82
To see at specific configuration settings press “edit” button located in newly created configuration entry. A new
page with detailed configuration appears, as shown in the picture below (TLS client example).
83
You can set custom settings here according to your VPN needs. Below is summary of parameters available to set:
Field name
Explanation
1.
Enabled
Switches configuration on and off. This must be selected to make configuration active.
2.
TUN/TAP

however, TAP is required to some Ethernet bridging configurations.
3.
Protocol
Defines a transport protocol used by connection. You can choose here between TCP and UDP.
4.
Port
Defines TCP or UDP port number (make sure, that this port allowed by firewall).
5.
LZO
This setting enables LZO compression. With LZO compression, your VPN connection will
generate less network traffic; however, this means higher router CPU loads. Use it carefully
with high rate traffic or low CPU resources.
6.
Encryption
Selects Packet encryption algorithm.
7.
Authentication
Sets authentication mode, used to secure data sessions. Two possibilities you have here:
“Static key” means, that OpenVPN client and server will use the same secret key, which must
be uploaded to the router using “Static pre-shared keyoption. “TLS” authentication mode
uses X.509 type certificates. Depending on your selected OpenVPN mode (client or server)
you have to upload these certificates to the router:
For client: Certificate Authority (CA), Client certificate, Client key.
For server: Certificate Authority (CA), Server certificate, Server key and Diffie-Hellman (DH)
certificate used to key exchange through unsafe data networks.
All mention certificates can be generated using OpenVPN or Open SSL utilities on any type
host machine. Certificate generation and theory is out of scope of this user manual.
8.

ownership of a public key by the named subject of the certificate.
18.
Client certificate
Client certificate is a type of digital certificate that is used by client systems to make
authenticated requests to a remote server. Client certificates play a key role in many mutual
84
authentication designs, providing strong assurances of a requester's identity.
19.
Client key
Authenticating the client to the server and establishing precisely who they are
After setting any of these parameters press “Save” button. Some of selected parameters will be shown in the
configuration list table. You should also be aware of the fact that router will launch separate OpenVPN service for every
configuration entry (if it is defined as active, of course) so the router has ability to act as server and client at the same
time.
85
8.4.2 IPSec
The IPsec protocol client enables the router to establish a secure connection to an IPsec peer via the Internet.
IPsec is supported in two modes - transport and tunnel. Transport mode creates secure point to point channel between
two hosts. Tunnel mode can be used to build a secure connection between two remote LANs serving as a VPN solution.
IPsec system maintains two databases: Security Policy Database (SPD) which defines whether to apply IPsec to a
packet or not and specify which/how IPsec-SA is applied and Security Association Database (SAD), which contain Key of
each IPsec-SA.
The establishment of the Security Association (IPsec-SA) between two peers is needed for IPsec communication. It
can be done by using manual or automated configuration.
Note: router starts establishing tunnel when data from router to remote site over tunnel is sent. For automatic
tunnel establishment used tunnel Keep Alive feature.

10 Device Recovery
The following section describes available options for recovery of malfunctioning device. Usually device can
become unreachable due to power failure during firmware upgrade or if its core files were wrongly modified in the file
system. Teltonika’s routers offer several options for recovering from these situations.
10.1 Reset button
Reset button is located on the back panel of the device. Reset button has several functions:
Reboot the device. After the device has started and if the reset button is pressed for up to 4 seconds the device
will reboot. Start of the reboot will be indicated by flashing of all 5 signal strength LEDs together with green connection
status LED.
Reset to defaults. After the device has started if the reset button is pressed for at least 5 seconds the device will
reset all user changes to factory defaults and reboot. To help user to determine how long the reset button should be
pressed, signal strength LEDs indicates the elapsed time. All 5 lit LEDs means that 5 seconds have passed and reset
button can be released. Start of the reset to defaults will be indicated by flashing of all 5 signal strength LEDs together
with red connection status LED. SIM PIN on the main SIM card is the only user parameter that is kept after reset to
defaults.
10.2 Bootloader’s WebUI
Bootloader also provides a way to recover the router functionality when the firmware is damaged. To make it
easier to use bootloader has its own webserver that can be accessed with any web browser.
Procedure for starting bootloader’s webserver:
147
Automatically. It happens when bootloader does not detect master firmware. Flashing all 4 Ethernet LEDs
indicate that bootloader’s webserver has started.
Manually. Bootloader’s webserver can be requested by holding reset button for 3 seconds while powering the
device on. Flashing all 4 Ethernet LEDs indicates that bootloader’s webserver has started.
Bootloader’s WebUI can be accessed by typing this address in the web browser: 192.168.1.1/index.html
Note: it may be necessary to clear web browser’s cache and to use incognito/anonymous window to access
bootloader’s WebUI.
11 Glossary
WAN Wide Area Network is a telecommunication network that covers a broad area (i.e., any network that links
across metropolitan, regional, or national boundaries). Here we use the term WAN to mean the external network that
the router uses to reach the internet.
LAN A local area network (LAN) is a computer network that interconnects computers in a limited area such as a
home, school, computer laboratory, or office building.
DHCP The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network configuration protocol for hosts on Internet
Protocol (IP) networks. Computers that are connected to IP networks must be configured before they can communicate
with other hosts. The most essential information needed is an IP address, and a default route and routing prefix. DHCP
eliminates the manual task by a network administrator. It also provides a central database of devices that are connected
to the network and eliminates duplicate resource assignments.
ETHERNET CABLE Refers to the CAT5 UTP cable with an RJ-45 connector.
AP Access point. An access point is any device that provides wireless connectivity for wireless clients. In this
case, when you enable Wi-Fi on your router, your router becomes an access point.
DNS Domain Name System. A server that translates names such as to their respective IPs. In order for your
computer or router to communicate with some external server it needs to know it’s IP, its name “” just won’t do. There
are special servers set in place that perform this specific task of resolving names into IPs, called Domain Name servers. If
you have no DNS specified you can still browse the web, provided that you know the IP of the website you are trying to
reach.
148
ARP Short for Adress Resolution Protocol a used to convert an into a physical address (called a ), such as an
address.
PPPoE Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. PPPoE is a specification for connecting the users on an Ethernet to
the internet through a common broadband medium, such as DSL line, wireless device or cable modem.
DSL digital subscriber line - it is a family of technologies that provide internet access by transmitting digital data
using a local telephone network which uses the public switched telephone network.
NAT network address translation an internet standard that enables a local-area network (LAN) to use one set
of IP addresses for internet traffic and a second set of addresses for external traffic.
LCP Link Control Protocol a protocol that is part of the PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol). The LCP checks the
identity of the linked device and either accepts or rejects the peer device, determines the acceptable packet size for
transmission, searches for errors in configuration and can terminate the link if the parameters are not satisfied.
BOOTP Bootstrap Protocol an internet protocol that enables a diskless workstation to discover its own IP
address, the IP address of a BOOTP server on the network, and a file to be loaded into memory to boot the machine.
This enables the workstation to boot without requiring a hard or floppy disk drive.
TCP Transmission Control Protocol one of the main protocols in TCP/IP networks. Whereas the IP protocol
deals only with packets, TCP enables two hosts to establish a connection and exchange streams of data. TCP guarantees
delivery of data and also guarantees that packets will be delivered in the same order in which they were sent.
TKIP Temporal Key Integrity Protocol scrambles the keys using hashing algorithm and, by adding an integrity-
checking feature, ensure that the keys haven’t been tampered with.
CCMP Counter Mode Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication Code Protocol encryption protocol
designed for Wireless LAN products that implement the standards of the IEEE 802.11i amendment to the original
IEEE802.11 standard. CCMP is an enchanted data cryptographic encapsulation designed for data confidentiality and
based upon the Counter Mode with CBC-MAC (CCM) of the AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) standard.
MAC Media Access Control. Hardware address which uniquely identifies each node of the network. In IEEE 802
networks, the Data Link Control (DCL) layer of the PSO Reference Model is divided into two sub-layers: the Logical Link
Control (LLC) layer and the Media Access Control layer. The MAC layer interfaces directly with the network medium.
Consequently, each different type of network medium requires a different MAC layer.
DMZ Demilitarized Zone a computer or small subnetwork that sits between a trusted internal network, such as
a corporate private LAN, and an untrusted external network, such as the public internet.
UDP User Datagram Protocol a connectionless protocol that, like TCP, runs on top of IP networks. Provides
very few error recovery services, offering instead a direct way to send and receive datagrams over IP network.
VPN Virtual Private Network a network that is constructed by using public wires usually the Internet to
connect to a private network, such as a company's internal network.
VRRP Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol - an election protocol that dynamically assigns responsibility for one
or more virtual router(s) to the VRRP router(s) on a LAN, allow several routers on a multiaccess link to utilize the same
virtual IP address.
149
GRE Tunnel Generic Routing Encapsulation - a tunneling protocol developed by Cisco Systems that can
encapsulate a wide variety of network layerprotocols inside virtual point-to-point links over an Internet Protocol
internetwork.
PPPD Point to Point Protocol Daemon it is used to manage network connections between two nodes on Unix-
likeoperating systems. It is configured using command-line arguments and configuration files.
SSH Secure Shell - a program to log into another computer over a network, to execute commands in a remote
machine, and to move files from one machine to another. It provides strong authentication and secure communications
over insecure channels.
VRRPD Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol it is designed to eliminate the single point of failure associated
with statically routed networks by automatically providing failover using multiple LAN paths through alternate routers.
SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol - a set of protocols for managing complex networks. SNMP works
by sending messages, called protocol data units (PDUs), to different parts of a network.
